An acronym for Second Interpreter of Scheme Code. SISC is a ridiculously
optimized interpreter of the functional language
Scheme. Using intelligent techniques, SISC performs
orders-of-magnitude faster than competitors, while offering a full language implementation.
SISC supports
aribitrary-precision integers
and floating point numbers, as well as
imaginary and
rational numbers.
First-class continuations are also fully supported with no loss in speed.
